How to check the centering on Pokemon Cards
Checking the centering on your Pokemon cards is pretty simple. Just look at the borders around the edge of the card. If the borders are even all the way around, you've got good centering. But, if one side is thicker or thinner than the other, then the centering is off. It's all about comparing the top to bottom and left to right borders. For precision, some folks use a ruler or a card grading tool to measure the borders for exact measurements.

Honestly, unless you're planning to get your cards graded, perfect centering isn't a big deal. Enjoy your cards for the art and the game, not just their potential resale value. I've been collecting for years and some of my favorites are a little off-center but still awesome.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy - just eyeball it! If it looks wonky, it probably is.
